FESTIVALS & EVENTS
Eildon Drag Boat Festival
The Liquid Drag Boat Nationals is a two-day water motorsport festival held at the Lower Eildon Pondage. The event operates as a community fundraiser, specifically supporting Foundation Murrindindi and the Country Fire Authority (CFA).
The weekend program consists of 30 to 40 competitor boats competing in head-to-head drag races over a 305-metre sprint course. Qualifying rounds run on Saturday, with eliminations and finals on Sunday. The foreshore area will host static boat displays, family entertainment and food vendors.
The site has designated parking with accessible spaces, and public amenities including portable toilets and waste bins. Spectator viewing zones are set back safely from the water.
Inward – An introspective retreat
The greatest journey you can take in this life is the six inches from your head to your heart. In the fast pace of modern life, making that sacred inner pilgrimage can feel almost impossible. This retreat will create the time, space, and guidance to return to yourself.
This is not just a reset; this is a return to, and an honouring of your heart’s deepest desire (Sankalpa). You will explore practices that allow this intention to rise from within and help you overcome behaviours that, consciously or unconsciously, limit your highest potential and the deeper purpose that longs to express through you.
Are you ready to make space for silence and self-enquiry to create change in your life and take the next step? This three-day immersion invites you to slow down, soften, and reconnect in nature at the beautiful sanctuary of Cheeky Fox Retreat in Kinglake.
Your experienced facilitators, Rayne Watkin and Sarah Machado, will guide you through a deeply supportive journey to help you realign with your inner wisdom—gently and effortlessly.
